Pearson Prize Teen Choice Award judge says about Misfit McCabe:
There is an interesting range or varied emotions from crying to laughing to simply secretly smiling to yourself because you can relate to every turn of events. You should definitely read this book.

I thought I’d take just a moment to let everyone know where each of the eight books are and current travel plans for the books.
Book 1
The Purple line started off in Garden Grove, CA and then traveled to Bayfield, CO, a trip of 801 miles, then on to Durango, CO, which brought the total mileage of the book up to 828 miles. It’s next stop was Montreal, QC where it is participating in the Pearson Prize Book Award contest, bringing the total mileage for the Purple line to 2,175 miles. Wow! I haven’t received any updates as yet from Montreal, but hope they start trickling in soon.

Book 1
The Purple line started off in Garden Grove, CA and then traveled to Bayfield, CO, a trip of 801 miles, so that it could go to school with Keely in Durango, CO and was shared with her class. That brought the total mileage of the book up to 828 miles. Miss Pam’s class decided to send the book to another class in Montreal, QC. And the book is currently traveling and trying to get through Customs to get to the classroom in Canada. Once it arrives, the total mileage for the Purple line will be 2,175 miles. Wow! It is also exciting to have one of the books travel to another country. So far Book 1 has been read by 5 people.

In today’s writing generation, it’s absolutely amazing that authors can now write a book, edit it, format it, publish it, sell it, print it, ship it, and market it all from their desk top computer. Let’s not forget readers! They can buy it and read it on their computers as well. That’s the tricky part for authors. How do we get readers to buy our books, read them, and spread the word so overall our sales increase along with our popularity?
